    Tube in bottom garage door seal?

    I finally got around to replacing the springs on my 18' insulated garage door, and it's now adjusted to the point where it sits softly on the garage floor instead of the full weight of the door sitting on the ground. Now my problem is that the old bottom seal is crushed flat and no longer makes...

    Quick tip for the milwaukee m18 vac

    The bell end of a stick of 1" plastic conduit makes a perfect extention, and with a touch of sanding the milwaukee attachments fight right on the end of it. It was something I had sitting around, and makes me much more likely to actually use the thing, haha

    Any information on this old shop light?

    I figured I would post this up before I ripped it apart to swap in some led lights. It has been hanging in an old shed that was torn down at work and ready for the scrap pile but ended up in the back of my truck instead. Its just a cool looking old light, and I thought it wouldn't look to bad...

    My drill is on the way out...

    My old Milwaukee 2704 drill is on the way out, unless I give it a good smack it won't switch from forward to reverse even though the switch is flipped. To me its not worth sending it in to have it looked at, its been through its fair share of abuse. Right now, is the biggest and baddest m18...

    M18 sander storage

    I finally picked up a Milwaukee m18 bare tool random orbit sander after months of trying to justify needing it, I figure after trying to wind up the cord on my old rigid and fit it back in the case 10 times, the cordless will be worth it. My old rigid random orbit still "works" but they don't...

    7" led can light retrofit?

    My kitchen has 5 old incandescent 7" can lights in it and I'm looking for some help finding simple led retrofit kits that will cover the same as the old ones did as the ceiling is textured right up to the trim rings but no closer to the openings and I don't want to try to match up to a smaller...

    Does anyone have any information about this box?

    I picked this up for no real good reason today, I have plenty of drawer space right now, and no dedicated space for this box, but the top box looked nice enough, but the bottom is pretty worthless for the space it takes up. its a pretty sturdy box, but the top of the bottom box is slightly...

    Bench top drill press stand, build or buy

    I just ordered a cheap 10" bench top drill press from menards, and im having a hard time deciding if I should buy a cart like this or build something to put it on. I would also like to mount a bench grinder next to it. I think the drawer in the cart would be nice for drill bits and clamps...
